Cyber wishes
I’m looking for that button,
Shiny red, unmistakably there,
To switch things of,
And let only memory remain. I'm looking for that button
But I know I search in vain
For the button to switch things off
And let memory remain
However, how hard I try,
There’s no such thing in real life,
It only exists in cyberspace,
And won’t get me anywhere. However hard I try
There's no such thing I'll find
It only exists in cyberspace
That button to rewind
So here I am,
Regretting what I’ve done,
But stuck with it,
As you were my only one.
The reset button does not exist Maybe I will find this command,
To erase everything that’s been done,
And I’ll start again,
Like nothing was ever there.
Maybe I'll find this command
To delete everything I've done
And then I can refresh
Was it F5? F7? F1?
There is no backspace
Nor a mouse click to get me back,
To where this all started,
I can’t revise the past. There is no backspace
No mouse click to take me back
To where this all started
I can't retype the past]]> Sunday Songwriters Group Joe https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg-week-36-37/#post-112600 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg-week-36-37/#post-10417 Thu, 21 Jul 2005 02:40:39 +0000

How easy it is,
How easy it seems,
To change everything,
But I'm only human,
Mistakes can not be undone.

Week 36
The Play of Life
I watch you, see you struggle,
Sweatdrops coming down your face,
The smile you force, the look you wear,
A lousy actor you are, in this play called life.

You see me, see my face,
Not the tiniest sign of my feelings,
My eyes are blank, my lips won't move,
Seems like I feel at home at this stage.

The play of life,
Seems the hardest to perform,
There are no rules,
Except to be yourself.
And still, only that, confuses you.

You stutter, lost for words,
The sounds you produce seem all misplaced
There is no script, you're on your own,
Creativity is not your strongest point.

I smile, quite at ease
Being who I am is not hard for me
Honesty we promised, honesty you get
The mask worn on stage, belongs not to me.

The play of life,
Seems the hardest to perform,
There are no rules,
Except to be yourself.
And still, only that, confuses you.

Let it go, that silly mask
Wearing it in front of the cameras is fine,
But baby, all I want to ask,
Let that go of it, and be truly you.

Then, and only then,
I'll be truly yours,
Your Juliet is this play of life.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group Karla https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg-week-36-37/#post-10417
